I don't remember LG as Lucky Goldstar--just Goldstar. I thought Goldstar was Japanese or European. I knew Hyundai was Korean...I never associated the pronuncation with wanting to sound Japanese....that's just the way it phonetically sounds in English--I automatically pronounced it like that without ever having seen a commercial.
I heard a lot of Americans think Honda and Panasonic are American companies too...so...who really cares? |

My dad worked for LG back when it was just Goldstar. We have the 1st Goldstar color TV sitting in our attic. It works too. On a side note, he was the chief electric engineer and his team was the one that wired the Saudi International Airport. |
